CDC Confirms First Ebola Case Diagnosed In The US, In Dallas Hospital - Press Conference Live Feed
- *CDC CONFIRMS FIRST EBOLA CASE DIAGNOSED IN THE UNITED STATES
- *EBOLA PATIENT IS IN DALLAS HOSPITAL, NEWS 8 REPORTS
The patient recently returned (via plane) from traveling from Liberia, West Africa. This perhaps explains why CDC was "taking precautions in the US" as we noted previously. And don't forget the administration's interference in Ebola treatments.
- *CDC SAYS INDIVIDUAL LEFT FROM LIBERIA
- *CDC SAYS PERSON WITH EBOLA IN TEXAS LEFT LIBERIA ON SEPT. 19
- *CDC SAYS INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPED SYMPTONS ON SEPT. 26
- *CDC SAYS U.S. EBOLA PATIENT IS A MALE
- *CDC IDENTIFIED ALL PERSONS THAT MAY BE IN CONTACT W/ INDIVIDUAL
- *CDC SAYS ALL PERSONS IDENTIFIED ARE MONITORED FOR 21 DAYS
- *CDC DIRECTOR SAYS: `I HAVE NO DOUBT WE WILL CONTROL THIS CASE'
- *CDC DIRECTOR SAYS: `THERE IS NO DOUBT WE WILL STOP IT HERE'
Press Conference (due to start at 530ET) via NBC News
Press Conference (due to start at 530ET) via CBS Local News
As Bloomberg reports,
The first Ebola case has been diagnosed in the U.S., the Centers for Disease Control said today in a statement.
A hospital in Dallas had been testing a person based on their travel history and symptoms, said in a statement earlier today. Another patient was being evaluated at a National Institutes of Health facility. It’s not clear if either patient is the one referred to in the CDC’s initial report.
CDC hosting a media briefing at 5:30pm; participants to include:
- CDC Director Thomas Frieden,
- Texas Department of State Health Services Commissioner David Lakey,
- Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas Hospital Epidemiologist Edward Goodman,
- Dallas County Health and Human Services Director Zachary Thompson.
That news explains this from last week..
- *CDC SAYS NEED TO SCALE UP EBOLA TREATMENT CENTERS ASAP
- *CDC SAYS TAKING PRECAUTIONS IN U.S. AGAINST EBOLA
It appears the term "contained" means a different thing once again.... as we warned here:
There’s a roughly 25 percent chance Ebola will be detected in the United Kingdom– and as much as an 18 percent chance it will turn up in the U.S. – by the end of September, the analysis of global mobility and epidemic patterns shows. The new paper includes the top 16 countries where Ebola is most likely to spread.
Though concerning, a spread to Western nations is not the biggest threat. At most, there would be a cluster of a few cases imported to the U.S., probably through air travel.
...
“We are at a crucial point,” Vespiginani said. “If the number of cases increases and we are not able to start taming the epidemic, then it will be too late. And then it requires an effort that will be impossible to bring on the ground.”
As we have noted previously (via Michael Snyder):
Even more noteworthy is the fact that the U.S. State Department has just ordered 160,000 Hazmat suits...
The U.S. State Department has ordered 160,000 Hazmat suits for Ebola, prompting concerns that the federal government is anticipating the rapid spread of a virus that has already claimed an unprecedented number of lives.
In a press release posted by Market Watch, Lakeland Industries, a manufacturer of industrial protective clothing for first responders, announced that it had signaled its intention “to join the fight against the spread of Ebola” by encouraging other suppliers to meet the huge demand created by the U.S. State Department’s order of 160,000 hazmat suits.
“With the U.S. State Department alone putting out a bid for 160,000 suits, we encourage all protective apparel companies to increase their manufacturing capacity for sealed seam garments so that our industry can do its part in addressing this threat to global health,” states the press release.
The huge bulk order of hazmat suits for Ebola has stoked concerns that the U.S. government expects the virus to continue to ravage countries in west Africa and may also be concerned about an outbreak inside the United States.
You don't order that many Hazmat suits unless you are anticipating an outbreak of apocalyptic proportions.
And the CDC has just issued a six page Ebola checklist to hospitals to help them spot potential Ebola patients in America...
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, warning hospitals and doctors that “now is the time to prepare,” has issued a six-page Ebola “checklist” to help healthcare workers quickly determine if patients are infected.
While the CDC does not believe that there are new cases of Ebola in the United States, the assumption in the checklist is that it is only a matter of time before the virus hits home.
Let us hope and pray that these precautions do not become necessary.
Because if Ebola starts spreading like wildfire in this country, we are going to see pain and suffering beyond anything that most of us have ever imagined.
Just consider what a health worker on the front lines is seeing on a day to day basis...
I wake up each morning – if I have managed to sleep – wondering if this is really happening, or if it is a horror movie. In decades of humanitarian work I have never witnessed such relentless suffering of fellow human beings or felt so completely paralysed and utterly overwhelmed at our inability to provide anything but the most basic, and sometimes less than adequate, care.
I am supervising the suspect tent, which has room for 25 patients who are likely to have Ebola – 80-90% of those we test have the virus. We administer treatment for malaria, start patients on antibiotics, paracetamol, multivitamins, rehydration supplements, food, water and juice while they wait for their results. Sometimes people have arrived too late and die shortly after arriving.
In one afternoon last week I watched five seemingly fit, healthy, young men die. I gave the first a bottle of oral rehydration solution and came back with another for the second. In the half a minute or so in which I had been away the first man died, his bottle of water spilt across the floor. The four others followed in quick succession.
Ebola is truly a terrible, terrible disease.
The moment that cases start popping up in the United States, all of our lives will instantly change.

FYI - here are CDC's contamination centers...

Wondering who started all this? It was a 2-year old in Guinea...

Yeah! That will teach you, you uppity, conspiracy theorising, government bashing, non-koolaid drinking, constitution fondling serf bastards! We gave you a chance to fall in line, but nooooo......
Now, suck government dick or die. How you like me now, bitches?!
Love,
Uncle Sam.
If Obama had a virus...
Any bets this came from Georgia not Africa.
and the flights continue... which says more than anything else.
Wait until a TSA agent gets Ebola and gives it to everyone he/she gropes for 3 weeks.
Not to mention all the high fives and hand slaps the TSA agent does on their breaks...
No one retarded enough to travel to Liberia with the intention of "saving" a bunch of cannibalistic savages, knowing they risked being infected with Ebola, should be allowed back into the United States.
Agreed. If fruit bat is on your menu, you probably should not be allowed to travel, let alone reproduce!
Now this all started because black Africans were "sexing" monkeys, right?
Yeah. Green monkeys are bad. Mmm-kay. You shouldn't fuck green monkeys (really, you shouldn't).
Yet, ironically, they were the same animals that Jonas Salk used to find a polio vaccine.
Reality is kind of weird.
Well there are the goat fckers on drone TV recently having their conjugal visits between firing volleys of missiles...so is hot monkey love so out of the realm? Just sayin
Ah... those with courage to help others are "retarded"...
those in Liberia are "cannibalistic savages"...
what will you say to the "retards" who try to save your life, at home...
the "retards" who also understood that cutting off the head of the snake was priority one,
and put their life on the line to do so?
FUCK !
and today's most memorable quote...
CDC DIRECTOR SAYS: `THERE IS NO DOUBT WE WILL STOP IT HERE'
Americans are a special type of retarded these days, with their Jew media vaudvillians. I certainly hope the 'Muricans can help this "youth" with his illness.
Guantanamo Care
DO NOT PANIC! You will be forced to take the appropriate vaccine soon enough!
If Obama had a son
Thanks CDC and US Fedcoat government, for taking every precaution to protect the USA, including common sense steps like halting all flights to and from countries experiencing an uncontrollable Ebola outbreak. This fucking government is worthless . . . for anything other than tyrannizing its citizens.
I have treated many illegals and some of them carry diseases, but I don't think of them as a whole as particularly unhygienic.
Like I said I think Americans are overly obsessed with being germ free, and this in turn lowers the quality of the immune defenses.
Generally speaking, as long as you wash your hands, avoid sleeping around, and dispose of your wastes properly, that's the best you can do. If you scrub yourself excessively or use all sorts of chemical products then actually your immune system will go haywire.
Great common sense comment! You'll probably be torched for your sanity here, but such is ZH these days.
In Africa, there is much poverty, poor sanitation, very poor diet, thus vulnerability to disease. And here there is Minge
I appreciate the validation.
D-Fens, If I stay outta Southern Mexico during the rainy season, my chance of getting malaria or denque is ZERO, so its not my immune system that is at issue. And yes, peons tend to be dirty. Ever wonder why there are no servietas/napkins on the tables in Mex restaurants? They pass as toilet paper. That's is the guy making your salad in the kitchen. There is a reason why there immune systems have difference defenses; they get atatcked by certain germs more often
ome to think of my hens quit laying on the rquinnox. Buy ammo and duck,
>The patient became sick Sept. 24, and he sought care two days later. He was sent home but returned to a hospital and was admitted Sept. 28. Frieden did not reveal the man's nationality but said he came to the USA to visit relatives.
Dallas will be in panic mode in 3...2...1...
They are stating he was from Liberia. Any bets that he KNEW he had been in contact with an ebola death and he KNEW (this has been highly disseminated in Africa news sources) that Getting to the US would mean Top Level Care. That he would infect others on the way is IRRELEVANT to him.
Frieden is SO STUPID that he didn't bother to take the First Step of Containment for ANY 2-bit medical workers: ISOLATE, in other words NO FLIGHTS FROM AFRICA.
And of course, the guy goes to the hospital, he KNOWS what he has and then all those nice hospital workers moved around working with all those nice sick people but FRIEDEN the Ultimate in Stupid says, "it will be contained."
Anyone think this is just so Frieden gets to play with all that money that'll now have to be spent to "protect" us from ebola?
Anyone else think that maybe turning the country into a third world cesspool because we are "compassionate" wasn't the way to go>
Well, this is exactly what Jack Burton and a few other commentators were saying with some eloquence a few weeks back.One does not need to be a rocket scientist to recognize this as common human nature. Anybody in that part of the world who has any financial resources and feels that they are threatened with Ebola, will want to hop on a plane to come to the US or Europe. This may just be the first of many infected immigrants arriving and tragically spreading this disease.
JUST FUCKING BAN TRAVEL TO AFRICA UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE YOU DUMBFUCKS!
Nah, that would be 'bad optics' for our Nobel Laureate TOTUS>
That's racist.
I believe this is racist

To the guy with the Freewheelin Franklyn quote, funnily enough Cannabis (marijuana) is an anti-viral, consuming industrial quantities is likely to be effective in stopping you catching it (I'm talking 1oz of Lebanese Blond or more per week)
I bought my biohazard suite level 4 back in july
live in a really small village, yeah can't even call it a town everyone owns guns, lotsa guns
we have our own water well
woodburning stoves and lotsa hunting and camping gear 140 miles from any major populations. and 250 miles away from
any liberal enclaves seems everyone I know has food stocked up.
Lysol kills ebola on contact gotta bunch of that.
But hey maybe im fucking paranoid
Being paranoid is all the rage among the wanna stay alive set.
Lysol kills ebola? ROFL, good luck!
I have been tracking ebola for years yeah lysol fucking kills it immediatly they used lysol on previous
outbreaks, good ole bleach does the same as does undiluted hydrogene peroxide
I'm afraid there ain't enough Lysol to cover all those 268,820 square miles of Texas.
look at the bright side! in a sense, ebola cures cancer and aids.
actually, it does. of course, not after it's gone systemic on you.
Lemon fresh Lysol is good at eliminating body odour. I sprayed a jacket with it once after a really hot day in the sun. No more b.o. Hadda make lots of jokes about being ambushed by the cleaning lady tho'.
Ok, I get it. You Are Jewish and you know what will happen next.
liberal enclaves?
daddy didn't raise no genius, apparently.
I like the no doubt it will stop here statement. Sounds like Timmy G on the US triple AAA rating:
"(US could lose AAA credit rating?) no risk of that, no risk….(S&P is wrong, US will keep its AAA credit rating?) absolutely.
-Tim Geithner, US Treasury Secretary, April 19, 2011 – Fox Business Interview - http://video.foxbusiness.com/v/4651704/geithner-no-risk-us-will-lose-aaa-credit-rating/?playlist_id=87185
“Standard & Poor’s announced Friday night that it has downgraded the U.S. credit rating for the first time, dealing a symbolic blow to the world’s economic superpower in what was a sharply worded critique of the American political system.”

Well like every other mass hysteria, end of the world disaster we've preached in the past few years let's see if this one comes to fruition.
Can mosquitos spread this shit? Don't forget about other ways..........infected fucking their goat and selling the meat, etc.
Just get a sneeze particle in your tear ducts. Apparently its proven to live on surfaces for a long time. Infected pick nose, and uses door handle, you use door handle the next day and touch your eye. Who knows, I guess if it goes exponential in case count here any downplay on the glowing box news channels will be seen through quite quickly. http://investmentwatchblog.com/ebola-advice-from-a-firefighter-emt-heavy...
Not to mention, there will be survivors who remain contagious for months after being infected. This isn't going to go away after the first wave. There will be many waves, potentially, there will be multiple different strains, ones that those that survived the first, won't be immune to the second. Like the many variations of influenza. We had a few months to stop this in Africa, seal borders (you know do crazy things to save lives!), but now cats out of the bag because the perma-optimists told us it would be OK and its contained. It will probably get into an animal population and survive year after year, the animals and some humans will act as carriers, like the bats in Africa.
The underside of your bed must be getting crowded. Jews, ISIS, Ebola, Ukrainian nazis... It must be a king-sized bed.
Ashkenazi have a natural resistance, but not for the Sephardim, Damn! I guess handling all that filthy money finally paid off. ;>
Had to upvote you. That's some seriously solid historical humor!
Spanish jewery has always been chump.
So if my neighbor dies of it, I shouldn't go over and take his food?
If you like your ebola you can keep your ebola.
If you don't like your ebola nano silver it.
Fox's Bill O'Reilley sucks cock.
O'Reilley is a statist fuck.
Fuck him and Abe Lincoln.
I stopped listening bill 3 ? yrs ago after sucked Romneys cock
This means he was on a flight possibly coughing and spreading it on that flight. This is not good.
"And so the Great Culling had begun, and gnashing of teeth, and moans from the suffering could be heard across the land, and behind the gated communities the chosen watched in horror at what they had wrought, and the survivors took what they wanted, and order was once again restored to the Kingdom."
I heard about 2 weeks ago? Maybe it was on Breitbart
that border patrol had apprehended 77 west africans scince june
I want proof this guy flew here. Like Dallas not N.Y. fucking really? to weird to close to the border.
fuck bill o'reilly!
Already contained in Nigeria. This should fizzle out way before Thanksgiving.
Guess what? You're all still a whacky mean spirited pack of poor suckers drunk on pathetic conspiracy theories never proven correct.
And golden nuggets are crashing below $1200.
After it fizzles out, the Federal Government will announce a trillion-dollar War on Ebola.
Well, I certainly very much hope your analysis proves correct, because I'm having a very hard time just dealing with the conspiracies proven true the past several years. I'm tired.
12 Monkeys. And that's just the Gubment.
“CDC DIRECTOR SAYS: `THERE IS NO DOUBT WE WILL STOP IT HERE'”
An interesting statement which does not state that it will be stopped, just that some undefined entity has no doubt and leaves the definition of “here” to the receiver.
Zero confidence.
mayb he ment it "ends here"---lots different
For short hand, call it THR Presby
Well folks....the good news is that XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.
[Once I think of something, I will return and edit this post. Check back often as you like!]
I hear every EBT card is soon going to be laced with Ebola. Gotta thin the FSA.
I like the positive vibe, but wouldn't that be against the interests of the Plantation Masters?
I think it is the height of irresponsibility to withhold the name of the individual, his known itinerary, and those he was staying with. Crowd source the contact tracing, post haste.
We wouldn't want to encourage anyone to mistakenly believe negros commit a disproportionate amount of crime, or suffer from a disproportionate amount of Ebola cases.
How can the CDC say they know all people in contact with the index case if he was in an ER twice and roaming the land for 3 days in between?
If he came to the US by commercial air, what about the crew, are they all on stand down or have they flown other flights.
What about all the passengers on that jet. Are they all in Dallas or have they traveled further domestically and internationally?
Are these questions being asked?
Just ask Minged. Everything is A-OK. Its under control.
Asking serious questions is for crazy people, accepting government propaganda is the cool thing to do.
The question the CDC needs to be offering every American insight into right now is just how virulent this Ebola strain is. How many of the infected have had their virus attributed to direct contact with blood/bodily fluid versus 'unknown/could be airborne'. If its airborne, we're looking at much worse than a Spanish flu scenario. I suspect we'd know if were this virulent by the African cases, which last I saw (and I'm sure they are underreporting) was ~5000, of which 50% went down for the dirt nap.
73%.
73% down for the dirt nap? 73% attributed to direct contact with blood/bodily fluid? 73% attributed to 'unknown', aka airborne?
Only one laboratory study, which was done under environmental conditions that favor virus persistence, has been reported. This study found that under these ideal conditions Ebola virus could remain active for up to six days.1 In a follow up study, Ebola virus was found, relative to other enveloped viruses, to be quite sensitive to inactivation by ultraviolet light and drying; yet sub-populations did persist in organic debris.2

FYI...Zimbabwe is "watching" 100 potential ebola cases; interestingly enough...a Russian honcho Just Visited to close a platinum deal with Zimbabwe...but of course, stating there are "NO Ebola Cases" in Zimbabwe had Nothing to do with the Russian visit. Meanwhile, Our Soldiers are told to go to Liberia? Why not send money and stuff they have plenty of peole there...if they want to save their own, let them man up themselves.
Oh come on. He's in Texas. They will blow up the hospital before anything major spreads.
Now if the new case was in Georgia or Vermont.....different story.
Someone once said never let a crisis go to waste. Quarantine is better than martial law in many ways.
So how is your six?
shut down american borders now imo...no one in or out
If this starts to go the airlines will have a very hard job keeping any flight attendants. It has become a crappy job anyway over the last several years. Why risk your life to Ebola?
Short the fuckin airlines
Besides many of them now (Thanks EEOC racists-sexists-tranny swine) look like fast food workers to fit the inter city bus ambiance.
Mandatory vaccination check points here we come!
601 hits already.One would think this is serious.
So, how many connecting flights? How many stewards and stewardesses did he come in contact with. He certainly was fed and drank, used the toilet, etc. Who sat next to him on his flights? TSA agents (good), baggage handlers, etc. etc. There are probably dozens if not hundreds that were in contact with him, breathed the same air on the flights, etc. This is such BS.
"Oh, look honey...That's the man I sat beside from NY to Dallas. What's the newscaster saying?
Turn up the volume."
Infect me once, shame on you.
Infect me twice, and I won't get infected again.
"*CDC IDENTIFIED ALL PERSONS THAT MAY BE IN CONTACT W/ INDIVIDUAL"....uh huh
Outbreak here is all part of the master plan. I hope it hits ferguson first.

Our hero will protect us.
Looks like our luck ain't changing yet. Came this close.....
No panic yet. However, if you have a second patient in the Dallas area come down with this Ebola and it will be hard to watch the ensuing hysteria.
Well, at least Dallas is pretty far away from me. That should draw off a lot of the martial law/thugcop resources.
If you/we are quarantined, do you/we have a way to get food?

That's why the Mormon's have a cultural, but individual responsibility to prepare for some measure of self sufficiency.
And a bike to make a quick getaway.
Not a Mormon, but I admire their push for self-sufficiency. They are "commanded" to build up a food supply to survive 6 mo to a year. Going with this is a system of rotating food so it doesn't go stale or rot.
It appears that Mormons consider it both a cultural (religio-cultural) and individual (family) responsibility.
SO much of what Americans used to be capable of is lost. How many of us can hunt? Grow food? Can? Bake bread from scratch? Treat ourselves medically?
Perhaps recapturing a sense of extended family is a good first start toward a cultural sense of responsibility. How many of us live near our children or parents, siblings and cousins? And if we did, could we re-initiate a relationship of trust with them? Besides that, we need to be proximate to our family. If they live in another state, or more than 50 miles, or so, they may as well be non-family.
In a real sense, self-responsibility and a strong individualistic ethos depends on a network of family members for the bad/good times. Helpers.
I'm realizing this, but its too late. Family is scattered. All are pursuing their lives independently. Sigh.
It's Michele's menu.
I've been pretty sarcastic posting on this, but in all seriousness, I rate this story maybe a .5 out of 10. The worst part of the story for me is that I no longer can trust much of anything from the public officials or the media that is suppose to douse those dark minds with sunshine. I haven't seen (God help us) any information suggesting tens, or hundreds of thousands infected in a matter of weeks suggesting an exponential growth. For most folks, even if it morphed into a true pandemic, there's not much to do. You have to work, go to school, grocery shop, ect. If you can "shelter in place" (don't you hate the gov't parlance?) like in the country, then you could survive a worst case scenario.
Why all this paranoia?
I've got Obamacare if I get sick; I'm covered!
We've got to get some of these African kids in our schools... It's so selfsih of Americans to be the only ones without viral dieseases slaughtering our children by the hundreds. Now that we have parity with the respiratory stresses of the youth to our south running rampant in our schools, it's only fair that Africa gets to share its wealth of plague with the children of America. After all...it really is all about the children, isn't it?

YES WE CAN!
... Give all Americans ebola.
Obama's Open Boarder Policy is going to spread Ebola like wildfire.
And the cat is out of the bag.....
Time for NDAA 2011 to go into effect...
I think I figured this out; ZH-style:
The Zionists and the CIA entered into a contract with ISIS to cover the blades of their knives with Ebola. Then, when they decapitate their captives, the host countries of those captives bring the virus home when they repatriate the corpses. Brilliant!
Except all the decapitation videos are staged by the CIA and Mossad.
Which would mean the whole Ebola thing is staged, too.
Which would mean that Ebola in Texas is as fake as the moon landing.
So, really, nothing to worry about.
Tossers.
Keep it up and I'll start wolfing down every poisoned morsel from Tonnny Wiiilllson. And Frankie of JewYork.

Yes, it's impolite to tease the disabled.
Nearly every single popular TV show has recently had episodes involving plague or pandemics.
Shocking.

This would not have been an issue if the dumb ass MFs had shut down air travel from west Africa in August when they had the chance. I blame the CDC and the politically correct morons in DC.
Common sense is not common in government. I don't think they are that stupid, I worry they are complicit.
so now it's a question of containment, this guy was symptomatic for 4 days at least. does the CDC really know everybody he came into contact with ? also it can survive outside of a host so how much of it did he leave out in public for somebody else to pick up? I guess we will have to wait a few weeks to know if it is going to really start running here in the states...
just the fact that it has made it this far is exteremly unsetteling, just think about it for a second. is it not one the most surreal headlines you have ever seen?
ebola is here...in the US. before today that only happened in movies and sci-fi horror novels. last year at this time if somebody asked me to list my top 100 things to be wary of, i can tell you beyond any doubt ebola would not have made the list.
but after today it might just be #1.
it's still to early to know what happens from here on out, maybe this turns out to be nothing, a one time incident, a bullet dodged... or maybe not. one thing is certian however and that is that we are now in uncharted territory as nothing like this has ever made an appearence here in the US.
we're off the edge of the map mates, here there be monsters.
What's even Kooler is if you survive and you're a male it lives in your nutsack for 7 weeks or so, when your
celebrating with the Mrs on your great fortune of survival she dies in about 2-21 days they really don't know.
infection to symptons everyone's different.
we're off the edge of the map mates, here there be monsters.
I thought I was the only one who said that.
Anyway the human race has gone through worse and we are still here.
The maybe's and if's are totally out of control here. Would you fly on a airliner that had ebola on it?

I'd suggest fapping twice each day. While that won't pump up your T-cells, it will keep your arm, hand, and prostate quite healthy. And, when you don't catch Ebola (which you won't anyway), you can attribute correlation to causation!
Fapping prevents Ebola!

Ebola is far greater a threat to Americans than ISIS, ISIL, Islamic State, Al Qaida, Al Qaida derivatives or Russia, or any other organization. But we will fail to DEFEND our borders on this issue.
Well at least it appears that its spread won't interfere with the season premiere of the Walking Dead in a couple of weeks.
I know a witch and she foretold.
First thing to go will be the food supply chain.
Then the railways will fail (think coal fired power plants being shudown).
Then the highway systems.

Remember...the Liberian news sources have been whining for weeks now about the "airlifts" and "care" given to Americans who contracted ebola. This guy did the smart thing; he knew he had contact, he (by counting days) probably was feeling the first few symptoms, which didn't set off alarms at the airport but which he could Feel, and so he jumped on a plane and got to the US where he figured he'd get care.
Notice that the president of Liberia has fired many from her government who were stationed overseas and are refusing to return home.
Meanwhile, Zimbabwe is "watching" 100 potential ebola cases; hmmm...give Zimbabwe's brutal regime...they may or may not be "watching" them?
And Tom Frieden is the Worst, Stupidest person on the planet. If you are a doc, and responsible for public health and don't understand Quarantine as the First Step of stopping a disease (notice he's never told the gays to stop transmitting Aids or stepped in in any way to stop all the diseases associated with Aids) then you are good for nothing. I loathe the guy and think his family and his wife and he should personally have to take care of ebola patients.
